We need a house sitter

East of England - Suffolk

Jacey

We have three beautiful dogs, some fish and a coop full of hens at our 5 bedroom Bulmer Suffolk home. With rolling fields at three sides of the property, we are located on the edge of a small village called Bulmer near Sudbury.
We travel frequently, so require some friendly people to care for our beloved creatures.
Some pet care is needed in the form of feeding the pooches once a day, feeding the hens once a day, feeding the fish once every couple of days and ensuring that all creatures have water at all times. We have a quarter of an acre of land so our two bulldogs require very little exercise beyond the romping around they do in their garden, though we have a speedy little chocolate pug who would love a walk if one were offered!
At the bottom of our lower patio and garden you will find our fully stocked pub: The Dog and Walnut, complete with disco lights and music.
On our third patio you will find a six person hot tub and incredible views out across the fields.
The top garden is where you will find our flock: 25 lovely ladies who will provide you with fresh eggs daily. We have an auto door so they let themselves out in the morning and take themselves to bed at night. They are incredibly friendly and love people sitting out with them (extra points if you take them some treats!) the only things not allowed in the top garden are the dogs!
We are walking distance from Sudbury though you would benefit from a car for further exploring. We are walking distance across the fields from Nethergate brewery, and very close to the river Stour which offers beautiful walks and boat rentals. We are happy to arrange for our cleaner to come once a week during your stay if you would like.

We had a great Dog and House Sit at Bulmer and thoroughly enjoyed all that your amazing house had to offer. Merlin, Bella and Pancake were well-behaved, so much fun and the best cuddle monsters you could possibly wish for!! And the freshly laid eggs were a bonus!! We really appreciated the explicit video instructions you supplied before the Sit, which helped enormously, and the continued communication throughout your holiday. Thank you for entrusting us with your house and animals, Wendy and ... MORE
 
WENDY & STEPHEN (Sep 2024 - 1 week 1 night)
This was a beautiful house with fabulous animals with lots of personality. Neither of the dogs nor the chickens have any boundaries: but that just makes them all the more enjoyable to spend time with! That being said, everyone is well trained, just uber friendly … at the sound of ‘Smooth Jazz for pets’ all three dogs line up for bed. Cute dogs with good taste in music, what more can you ask for. Very much enjoyed our stay, and I personally will miss reading in the chicken garden in the ... MORE
